I can't believe I haven't posted in awhile and so much happened in the month of April starting with the annual Glass and Bead Expo at the South Point the first weekend of April. The show is always such a good one and I you can find me working in the Art Clay World booth. It was so nice to see everyone again and to meet new people. This years was the first year I actually took time out to take a class with Melissa Muir on how to use and create great jewelry with a hydraulic press....yes of course I bought one and they shipped it for the show. I love my new purple press!The following weekend was the Dirty Girl 5K mud run in Arizona. What a blast!! this run is for woman only- no men allowed! We had a team of 6, or name is 5 Chicks and a Peep, the run is a obstacle course where we had to climb over, tunnel under and slide down so many bouncy things that all lead you right into a big mud pit. For such a great cause and it was a weekend of pure joy and laughter with a great group of friends. Thanks guys for dragging me kicking and screaming into this crazy event I can't wait till we do it all again next year.
The following week I was working with our local Fire Station serving up pancakes at our annual open house, lots of great things to see and do and many local companies on hand to answer questions, was such a great turn out with so many of the local community getting involved.
Then there were many shows at the Smith Center that I took in and did I mention that same week I had the huge garage sale (thanks everyone who helped so much especially my dear sister/friend Sylvia who flew out from Tucson just to help).
That was all in April but in May things didn't show down one bit I had company from California for a few days and my sister from Portland came out for a week so she and I to do a trunk show at our local Knit shop. Also went to see several shows courtesy of House Seats....it's been crazy but looks like June will be getting back to normal....stay tuned.
